The place itself is old, so hallways and rooms have an antique feel to them. The location is outstanding with less than 5 minute walk to some of the most amazing attractions in Istanbul. There are 100s of good restaurants and shops literally next door. Breakfast is okay and it can be a bit noisy at night, but the price makes it a good deal. ##### Desmond Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Fariya Jul 19, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities This guest house is perfectly situation in Istanbul. You are close to all the main tourist attractions. This guesthouse is very clean and I loved the breakfast which was traditional Turkish style. The owners and staff of the guesthouse are so friendly and welcoming that it really did make our trip extra special. I loved staying here and will definitely stay here again!

They were excellent hosts and made us feel very welcome in their guest house, as if we were guests in their homes. We look forward to staying with them again. The guesthouse was very close to the main touristic sites, and if you'd like to venture further afield and eat in some nice restaurants, Yesim and Ahmet will give you great recommendations.

The owner, Yeşim, was attentive, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond during our visit. The same for her staff, particularly Homayoun. This is a place we will come back to when we return to a city we fell in love with! You can't go wrong when choosing this property both in terms of the character of the place and the owner and her staff. ##### Zohre Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chew Dec 30, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is the best hotel that I have stayed at, bar none. My family along with another family are invited to dine with Yesim, Ahmet and their family. The hosts make sure that our stay at Istanbul is well taken care off. Our family looked forward to breakfast every morning. Partly because of the food but most importantly, the chats that we have with the hosts and other hotel guests. When you're in Istanbul, stay at Grandma's guesthouse. You will be treated like a family. An experience that you won't get at a faceless, corporate hotel, even if you have paid 5 times the costs. ##### Chew Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James May 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Small and a bit loud The room was at street level and therefore a bit loud. That was unfortunate. Then the AC wouldn't work (owner got it to work in the morning but we were leaving). Due to this, it was even more loud with trash truck day at 11:00pm. Room was small but ample. Breakfast was simple and the owners were there and made us feel welcome. Nice rooftop terrace to see the full moon.

It is a guest house with a nice location, clean accommodation, and a nice terrace view. When I check in at the accommodation, the host brings you welcome tea. I love it. They kindly explain it to us at breakfast and bring us Turkish coffee at the end of the meal. The pumpkin soup I had at breakfast was so delicious and I will remember it again. During the two nights, they always treated us kindly with a smile and a smile, so we stayed comfortable as if we were staying at my mom's house. Always be healthy and look forward to seeing you again next time. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E79E8AC96569DE8CEFB1FD6B687337112052803A1730190300679.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/CC6214CDC0D6AB2C4761B5BFACD94A6B78E62C811730190300923.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/F650319954B9297F84DE568B2139C07F419337BB1730190301784.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8C9A4B224DC992B6411EF5814BF4C96F0E7B3CE11730190299645.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### HYUNJU Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Lissette Jul 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Great staff, but unfortunately i got a room close to the street and next to lobby i can hear everything, the worse part was the garbage truck in the window, was scared ##### Lissette Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### sebiye Jun 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### sebiye Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Greg May 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great gem in the middle of old Istanbul We loved our time in Istanbul, and Berk's was a great place to have as our base - so close to many places, and very personable and friendly service.

Séjour très agréable à la Berk Guesthouse! Nos hôtes ont été très accueillants, chaleureux et plein de gentilles attentions et de bons conseils (merci pour le turkish coffee!). L'auberge se situe dans une rue tranquille et possède un toit-terrasse offrant une belle vue de la ville. La chambre était propre ainsi que les sanitaires. Il y a une petite bouilloire avec des verres ainsi que des dosettes pour se faire un petit café ou du thé. Il y a aussi un frigo qui fonctionne. Le petit déjeuner offre du choix et on est bien rassasié avant d'attaquer une journée de visite! En plus l'auberge est très bien située pour faire tous les incontournables de la ville à pied!
